This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the MAL series. The drop-in replacement is B06-SAID63X350S — same bore, stroke, output force, port and mounting, so it fits the same application. Simply order the B06-SAID63X350S in place of this model. The SAI replacement keeps the same ISO 15552 mounting interface, bore, stroke, output force and accessories, so it drops straight into existing fixtures. It is the current-production version of this cylinder with an upgraded piston seal.

The AirTAC Airtac B06-SID Battery Dedicated ISO Standard Cylinder B06-SID63X350S is a double-acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) profile-barrel cylinder with a Ø63mm bore and 350mm stroke, G3/8 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the drop-in replacement is the B06-SAID63X350S, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC B06-SID63X350S is a double-acting double-rod ISO 15552 cylinder where the rod exits both ends, making push and pull force equal at 1402 N @0.5 MPa. The B06- prefix marks this as a battery-manufacturing dedicated variant of the base SID63X350S, mechanically identical with a G3/8 port, M16x1.5 rod thread, and 30 mm adjustable cushions. This SID model is discontinued; the exact drop-in replacement is the SAID63X350S, sharing the same interface, bore, stroke, and mounting.
The SAID upgrade features a two Y-shaped one-way piston seal for low start-up pressure and long life. Because both faces use the rod-side area, force is equal both ways, preventing rod-side drift and allowing a back rod to carry a sensor cam. Computed buyer insight: safe working load is ~841 N (60% of 1402 N @0.5 MPa), yielding a ~71 kg vertical lift with a 2:1 margin.

The B06-SAID63X350S produces the same force from the same bore — a true drop-in on output. Actual usable force is lower than theoretical; size with a margin.

Legacy SI-family variants: SID (double rod), SIJ (adjustable stroke) — each maps to its SAI equivalent (SID→SAID, SIJ→SAIJ). Rod material: carbon steel (blank) / SUS420J2 (A) / SUS304 (B).
Equal push/pull force precisely indexes prismatic cells during stacking, while the rear rod drives a sensor cam for exact positioning.
Dual rods carry two tooling plates to shuttle busbars into welding fixtures without rotational drift.
Provides stable horizontal transfer of battery packs using the 1402 N @0.5 MPa equal force both ways.
To replace the discontinued B06-SID63X350S, specify the SAID63X350S, which reuses the exact ISO 15552 mounting (Basic, FA, LB, TC) and G3/8 port. Size both ways by checking neighbor bores while relying on the equal-both-ways force (1962 N @0.7 MPa). A double rod is right when you need anti-rotation, dual-tool driving, or a rear sensor cam. The -S suffix provides a magnet for legacy CS1-B/DS1-B switches. At 350 mm stroke, use external guides to prevent rod bending and side loads.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the B06-SID63X350S is discontinued. The exact drop-in replacement is the SAID63X350S, sharing the same ISO 15552 interface, bore, stroke, and G3/8 port. The B06- prefix simply marks it as battery-manufacturing dedicated; mechanically it is identical to the base SID63X350S.
Force is equal both ways: 1402 N @0.5 MPa, 1962 N @0.7 MPa, and 2523 N @0.9 MPa. The safe working load is ~841 N (60% of the 0.5 MPa figure), allowing a ~71 kg vertical lift with a 2:1 margin. It does not hold loads on air loss; use an external rod lock or SAIL/BSAI variant for held loads.
